Miss  Betsey  Stockton,  b.  Princeton,  N.  J.  (in  slavery,)  about 
1798;  arr.  Honolulu,  Apr.  27,  1823;  stat.  Lahaina,  May  31,  1823, 
where  her  school  was  commended  for  its  proficiency ;  ret.  to  U. 
S.  Oct.  15,  1825;  labored  in  Canada,  Princeton,  N.  ].,  and  Phila- 
delphia; d.  Princeton,  Oct.  24,  1865,  but  was  buried  at  Coopers- 
town,  N.  Y.,  with  the  family  of  Rev.  C.  S.  Stewart. 


The  eight  years  during  which  the  first  and  second  companies  of 
American  missionaries  were  making  essays  in  the  intellectual  and 
spiritual  enlightenment  of  the  natives,  cover  an  important  section 
in  the  history  of  the  transition  of  a  nation. 

Before  this  time,  indeed,  Commerce,  that  is,  a  ruinous  waste 
of  the  country's  sandal  wood,  had  taught  the  chiefs  the  power 
of  money  to  buy  luxuries ;  and  they  assumed  an  appearance  of 
civilization,  but  the  people  were  unchanged. 

The  teaching  of  the  missionaries  was  stimulating  to  a  nature 
which  was  slow  to  respond :  it  was  repressive  to  instincts  and 
habits  which  could  not  be  readily  changed,  and  which  sometimes 
exploded  with  danger  to  the  missionaries :  and  it  was  directly 
antagonistic  to  the  teaching  of  other  white  men,  who  preferred 
lawlessness  or  their  ideal  South  Sea  liberty,  and  whose  power 
reached  its  high  tide  in  1826;  yet  the  Gospel  truth  did  reach  cer- 
tain hearts,  and  the  fallow  ground  was  broken  up  in  those  years.

The  materials  for  a  frame  building  for  Seamen's  Chapel  were 
contributed  by  several  ship  owners  of  Norwich  and  New  London, 
Ct,  and  were  brought  out  in  their  whale  ships,  free  of  charge, 
early  in  1833.  Kinau,  the  premier,  gave,  as  a  site  for  its  erection, 
the  lot  at  the  west  corner  of  King  and  Bethel  streets,  and  also  a 
residence  site  for  the  chaplain,  now  the  Damon  premises,  Chap- 
lain Lane. 

The  chapel  was,  at  first,  48  by  30  feet,  seating  200 ;  it  was 
built  over  a  stone  basement  story,  which  accommodated  a  read- 
ing room,  book  depository,  marine  museum,  &c.  It  was  afterward 
much  enlarged  by  increasing  the  length  and  taking  in  the  base- 
ment. The  chapel  was  dedicated  Nov.  24,  1833.  On  June  11, 
1835,  a  bell  was  presented  to  it,  by  the  foreign  residents  of  Ho- 
nolulu, and  shipmasters  then  in  port.  In  May,  1837,  the  Oahu 
Bethel  Church  was  organized,  having  eight  members. 

The  builder  of  the  "Bethel"  was  Mr.  Burnham,  specimens  of 
whose  skillful  joinery  are  still  to  be  seen  in  the  old  mission  houses. 
The  Bethel  was  destroyed  in  the  great  fire,  Apr.  18,  1886.

The  education  of  their  children  was  a  problem  very  early  forced 
upon  the  attention  of  the  missionaries.  During  the  first  21  years, 
no  fewer  than  33  children  were  either  taken  back  to  the  father- 
land by  their  parents,  or  were  sent,  with  many  heartbreakings  at 
separation,  and  to  their  lasting  detriment,  in  some  cases. 

The  site  of  Punahou  School — now  Oahu  College — was  given  to 
Rev.  H.  Bingham,  by  Gov.  Boki,  in  1829;  and  by  Mr  Bingham, 
on  his  return  to  the  U.  S.  in  Aug.,  1840,  was  left  to  the  American 
Board  for  the  very  purpose  to  which  it  has  since  been  devoted. 
In  1840  the  school  was  organized  by  the  appointment  of  a  Board 
of  Trustees,  and  July  n,  1842,  it  was  opened  for  business  with 
15  pupils  in  attendance. 

Rev.  D.  Dole  and  wife  and  Miss  M.  Smith  were  the  first 
teachers ;  and  two  years  after,  Mr.  W.  H.  Rice  and  his  wife  were 
added  to  the  teaching  force.  "Plain  living  and  high  thinking" 
were  the  rule  of  the  establishment;  and  by  common  consent,  in 
retrospect  from  the  present  time,  the  work  of  those  early  teachers 
was  nobly  done.

The  "Old  Stone  Church"  of  Kawaia- 
hao  is  the  fifth  in  succession  of  houses 
of  worship  built  near  the  same  spot.  All 
the  others  were  frames  of  poles,  in  the 
native  style,  thatched  with  grass. 

The  first  was  54x21  ft.  in  size,  and  had 
plain  doors,  a  pulpit  window,  a  decent 
pulpit,  and  astral  lamps.  It  was  built  by 
subscription  which  was  opened  June  25, 
1821,  chiefs  and  foreigners  contributing; 
and  it  was  dedicated  Sep.  15,  the  same 
year,  Mr.  Thurston  preaching  the  dedica- 
tion sermon.  This  house  was  burned, 
Mar.  30,  1824. 

By  command  of  Kalanimoku  a  second 
church  was  quickly  built,  from  materials 
contributed  by  certain  chiefs.  It  was 
72x25  ft.,  and'  seated  600  people ;  but  it 
proved  too  small  for  the  congregation : 
and,  in  1825,  a  third  church  was  built  by 
Queen  Kaahumanu  and  , Kalanimoku.  at 
a  place  which;  is  now  the  south  corner 
of  the  Executive  Building  yard,  the  an- 
gle of  King  and  Likelike 'streets. 

The  fourth  was  built,  also  by  royal 
authority,  in  1829,  seaward  as  to  its  site 
and  at  right  angles  as  to  its  position, 
from  the  present  stone  church.  It  was 
196x63  ft.,  and  seated  4000  people.  The 
pulpit,  neatly  built  of  native  wood,  was 
at  the  middle  of  the  east  side.  It  rose 
from  a  low  platform  24x12  ft.,  behind 
which  was  a  vertical  sounding-board  of 
the  same  size,  broken  only  by  the  central 
pulpit  window.  Some  settees  for  the 
privileged  ones  faced  the  platform,"  litjt 
the  great  audience  seated  themselves  on 
mats  which  covered  the  rush-strewn 
earth  floor.  Entrance  was  through  two 
large  doors  at  each  end,  and  numerous 
smaller  ones  at  the  sides.  The  dedica- 
tion of  this  church  was  held  July  3.  1829. 
All  the  dignitaries  of  the  State  were 
present.  The  young  King  and  the

Princess,  his  sister,  made  addresses  to 
the  people,  and  the  King  made  a  volun- 
tary dedicatory  prayer]  A  trained  choir 
of  men  and  women  rendered  the  hymns, 
and  a  bass-viol  represented  the  orchestra. 
The  building  of  the  fifth  church  took 
its  impulse  from  a  desire  of  the  young 
King  for  three  things — a  ship  of  war,  a 
palace,  and  a  new  church.  Kinau,  his 
Premier,  thought  it  well  to  secure  the 
church  first ;  and  at  a  public  called  meet- 
ing, early  in  1836,  plans  were  shown  and 
explained,  and  a  subscription  started,  the 
King  leading  off  with  $3,000.  Gov.  Ker 
kuanaoa  was  master  workman.  The 
male  church  members  were  divided  into 
five  bands,  and  each  band  wrought  one 
day  in  the  week  as  volunteers.  Coral 
blocks  for  the  walls  were  cut  from  the 
reef  near  the  harbor.  The  heavy  tim- 
bers for  floor  and  roof  were  native  wood, 
hewed  to  size.  Quantities  of  lime  mortar 
were  made  from  home  materials.  The 
basement  was  excavated  to  coral  bed 
rock,  and  basement  walls  and  piers  start- 
ed from  that  foundation.  The  building 
is  144x78  ft.,  and  has  basement,  main 
floor,  and  galleries,  and  a  vestibule  and 
tower.  It  was  six  years  in  building,  and 
cost  $33,000 ;  and  was  opened  July  2 1 , 
1842.  In  1893  the  wood  work  .had  to  be 
renovated,  and  the  interior  is,  in  every 
sense,  modern. 

The  organization  of  this  church,  that 
is.  the  date  when  the  first  Hawaiian 
members  were  received  into  the  Mission 
church,  was  Dec.  5,  1825  ;  and  the  "Dia- 
riiond  Jubilee"  was  celebrated  Dec.  2nd. 
'1900,  and  through  the  week  following.

At  the  "General  Meeting"  of  the  missionaries  held  at  Honolulu, 
June;  1837,  it  was  decided  to  divide  the  mission  work  in  Hono- 
lulu, and  establish  a  new  station  at  Kaumakapili  and  place 
Rev.  Lowell  Smith  in  charge  of  the  same.  It  was  exceed- 
ingly difficult  to  secure  land  suitable  for  family,  for  school, 
and  church  purposes,  as  in  those  days  the  King  and  high  chiefs 
had  nominal  possession  of  all  lands.  This  particular  neighbor- 
hood belonged  to  Paki,  one  of  the  principal  chiefs,  but  in  time  he 
arranged  with  several  Hawaiian  families  to  vacate  their  dwellings, 
giving  them  other  homes  in  exchange,  and  thus  about  half  an 
acre  of  ground  was  obtained  and  consecrated  to  the  new  work. 
Building  materials  being  very  scarce,  the  walls  of  the  dwelling 
and  school  houses  were  of  adobe  bricks,  the  roof  of  native  grass. 

On  the  i gth  of  December,  1837,  missionary  work  at  the  new 
station  was  opened  in  the  school  house,  which  was  65  by  30  feet. 
A  rush  covered  lanai  of  equal  proportions  was  added,  the  door- 
way being  used  as  the  speaker's  platform.  About  1,000  people 
could  be  comfortably  accommodated,  as  all  sat  upon  the  rush- 
strewn  floors. 

On  the  ist  of  January,  1838,  commenced  the  remarkable  re- 
ligious awakening  which  continued  over  the  entire  group  of  Isl- 
ands for  about  three  years.  On  the  ist  day  of  April  of  the  same 
year,  Rev.  Hiram  I'ingham  assisted  Rev.  Lowell  Smith  in  or- 
ganizing a  church  at  Kaumakapili,  at  which  time  22  persons 
were  received  by  letter  from  Kawaiahao  Church,  two  from  Ewa, 
one  from  Kauai,  forty-nine  on  profession  of  their  faith  in  Christ. 

The  accommodations  were  insufficient  from  the  first  for  the 
throngs  that  assembled  daily  to  listen  to  the  preaching  of  the 
gospel,  and  steps  were  taken  to  prepare  for  a  larger  place  of 
worship.  It  is  recorded  under  date  of  February  8,  1838, — "Some 


70  or  80  men  have  commenced  cultivating  patches  of  ground 
for  the  Lord,  to  purchase  a  bell,  and  build  a  meeting-house.  The 
Lord  grant  us  his  blessing." 

It  was  one  year  and  four  months  from  the  time  the  founda- 
tions were  laid,  ere  the  first  Kaumakapili  Church  was  dedicated 
to  the  Lord.  This  was  done  August  29,  1839.  The  walls  of  adobe 
brick,  were  three  feet  thick  and  twelve  feet  high ;  the  building 
sixty  feet  wide  and  one  hundred  and  twenty-five  feet  long.  There 
were  eight  large  doors  and  sixteen  large  windows,  and  a  seven 
foot  veranda  surrounded  the  whole  building.  The  covering  was 
an  immense  hip  roof,  very  steep  and  thatched  with  grass.  2500 
to  3000  persons  could  get  within  hearing  of  the  preacher,  and  the 
accoustic  properties  of  the  great  room  were  perfect. 

For  thirty  years  Mr.  Smith  preached  in  this  church,  and  ful- 
filled the  complex  duties  of  the  station  and  pastorate.  Over 
3000  names  were  enrolled  as  members  during  this  period.  At  the 
request  of  the  American  Board,  he  then  resigned  in  favor  of 
Rev.  A.  ().  Forbes.  Rev.  G.  W.  Pilipo,  and  Rev.  M.  Kuaea 
succeeded  him  in  turn ;  and  during  the  incumbency  of  the  latter, 
with  large  assistance  from  King  Kalakaua,  the  old  church  was 
removed,  and  the  foundations  laid  of  the  brick  structure  that  was 
destroyed  by  fire,  January  20,  1900.  This  second  building  was 
of  two  stories,  with  large  handsome  windows.  It  was  equipped 
with  electric  lights,  a  fine  organ,  folding  seats,  and  chime  of  bells. 
Rev.  W.  Waiamau  was  for  years  the  pastor,  till,  stricken  with 
paralysis,  his  place  was  filled  by  Rev.  E.  S.  Timoteo. 

The  organization  is  worshipping  temporarily  in  a  district 
chapel  in  Palama,  awaiting  the  time  when  the  Fire  Claims  shall 
be  settled,  and  definite  steps  can  be  taken  for  rebuilding'  on  or 
near  the  old  site.
